ASTRONOMERS
Here is the New Edition 2009 of the Lollini album: Astronomers.
Our ASTRONOMERS Album is a true encyclopaedia of science and stamps.
As advanced as is astronautics, the trajectory of the spacecrafts will invariably follow the roads traced by Kepler; our rockets will get as powerful, and they will have to fight the laws of gravitation of Newton, and it is why the astronomers are so significant and the reason why we dedicate a whole album to them.
In this new edition, we have changed many significant points:
- a reproduction of all the stamps is printed in half-tint inside each compartment, so you will be able to identify the astronomer stamp easily, even without a catalog.
- We also have indicated the date of emission of all the stamps.
- 49 new illustrations of astronomers appear in this album, all the great names: Copernic, Aristote, Tycho Brahe, Kepler, Euler, Mercator, Lowell, Caldas, etc...
This new edition is ideal for everybody who collects stamps of worldwide astronomers and who wants to display their collection.

ATOM
The Atom, Nuclear Energy brings the fear of the bomb, but also hope when it comes to health and economy. Perhaps a cleaner industry for the future?
The album "ATOME" involves you in the heart of matter, towards the microcosm which presents such resemblance to our universe : Sun and planets (core and electrons) solar system and galaxy (atom and molecule) Law of gravitation of Newton or intermolecular attraction. What mysteries still to be discovered !
The atom is also the source of the power of stars, which will make our earth a paradise or a radioactive hell. It is the key which will open the way to stars for our rockets, only this fantastic energy imprisoned in matter is able to propel us out of the limits of our Solar system. To explore the Universe, Man must control the forces of creation : Atomic energy is the best known energy.
But the atom does not have only one vocation in space. It relieves the suffering of innumerable diseases like cancer and brings cures by its rays. Each day it is prooven to us that the atom is a benefit for humanity - Take part with the stamps on an ATOMIC subject in the great nuclear adventure of mankind.
Collection in only one volume.

METEOROLOGY
(Science, Satellites and sounding balloons)
This collection METEOROLOGY treated a topic closely associated with astronautics, because this science determines the departure or the postponement of launchings and it is even revolutionizedby the new conditions of observations brought by rockets and satellites.
This album treats stamps exclusively where NO SATELLITE APPEARS; those others having been classified in priority in our SPACE album.. But you can also collect the stamps about the Météosatellites such as Tiros, Nimbus, Eole and Météor. These satellites established little by littele the laws of meteorology. On a planetary scale they represent a new stage which will allow us one day to act directly on the climate in order to subject it to men’s needs.
The 100 anniversary of the W.O.M. - World Organization of Meteorology - was the philatelic occasion to commemorate the great organizationof U.N., which is included in our ALBUM METEOROLOGY.
Collection in only one volume.

PRECURSORS
You travel in the past as if in a history book, you seek into it the why’s of discoveries, who was searching, how the today’s techniques were born?
The collection "PRECURSORS" should be a prelude to any SPACE collection, because there you will find the famous pioneers who made the current CONQUEST of SPACE possible - Since ancient antiquity, courageous spirits have tried a powerful modes of propulsion to escape from their planet,at risk to their lives.
The russian scientist Tsiolkowski had the first brilliant vision of a spacecraft using a liquid fuel to reach the planets. It is thanks to him and famous precursors such as Goddard, Max Vallier, and Jules Verne, that rocket exists. X 15, which is the prototype of the space shuttle, derives from the same principle.
